ABSTRACT:
A protective device for the heel and back portion of a footwear article including a cover member, at least two user adjustable straps for securing the cover member to a footwear article, and a sealable pouch attached to the cover member. The cover member has a curved exterior surface portion and includes a padded, recessed area for receiving at least a portion of the heel and back of a footwear article and a elongated heel slot formed through a bottom section of the cover member having a width sufficient to allow a standard high heel to be inserted laterally into the slot in a manner such that the back of the shoe to which the highs heel is attached is disposed within the padded recessed area. The sealable pouch is constructed of flexible plastic and has a central portion permanently affixed to the curved exterior surface portion of the cover member device and two side portions that are detachably securable to the curved exterior surface of the cover member with a restickable adhesive. Attaching the sealable pouch permanently at its center and with a restickable adhesive along its two sides allows the opening of the sealable pouch to be easily opened for inserting and removing a treated polishing cloth that is stored within the sealable pouch for use in touching up and polishing small scuffs and other minor damage to the footwear article. The treated polishing cloth is preferably provided with the protective device.
